ALLEGRO_VERTEX
typedef struct ALLEGRO_VERTEX ALLEGRO_VERTEX;
Defines the generic vertex type, with a 3D position, color and texture coordinates for a single texture. Note that at this time, the software driver for this addon cannot render 3D primitives. If you want a 2D only primitive, set z to 0. Note that when you must initialize all members of this struct when you're using it. One exception to this rule are the u and v variables which can be left uninitialized when you are not using textures.
Fields:
- x, y, z - Position of the vertex
- color - ALLEGRO_COLOR structure, storing the color of the vertex
- u, v - Texture coordinates measured in pixels
